Conventional roofs heat up significantly under solar radiation, which leads to environmental consequences and additional costs for businesses. Solarcoat reflective paint lowers interior temperature of buildings.
Based in Toulouse, Solar-Paint offers reflective paint, so-called “intelligent” for protecting the roofs of industrial and commercial buildings. The building in general, by its operation and structure, represents 14% of greenhouse gas emissions. The question of the energy performance of buildings is a real challenge and Solarcoat paint is intended to be a concrete response to this issue on roofs.. Roofs heat up significantly under solar radiation, and this has several consequences. This heat is transmitted inside buildings, which has the effect of increasing the interior temperature. Untreated roofs promote urban heat islands. The result leads to uncontrolled energy expenditure which generates significant additional costs and significant quantities of greenhouse gases..
Athermal paint
Called Solarcoat, this paint has a reflectivity rate greater than 92%. Solarcoat has a higher reflectivity than the SRI reference standard (Solar Reflectance Indicator) : 116/100. A result which places it among the most effective in this field. It naturally lowers the temperature by an average of five degrees. inside the premises and thus save up to 15% of the energy consumption of buildings. A very important issue for the tertiary sector, mass distribution, local communities, architects or design offices linked to energy diagnostics : the average energy consumption bill for a large area is around 500,000 euros per year ! Unique and efficient, Solarcoat paint is developed and manufactured in Occitanie by the French number one in paint, Mastery, based in Ariège. It's a water-based paint, made with natural ingredients and additions of recycled material such as broken glass. Its recipe allows it to refresh in summer, but also to limit heat loss in winter.
Michel Rouault, PDG de Solar-Paint
“By its organic design, its ease of use, its low cost and its performance superior to the reference criteria, Solarcoat is a very relevant solution for reducing the energy costs and environmental costs of commercial buildings, industrial or public, with immediate and lasting effectiveness over time. »
